Tradition on the Banks of the Águeda

Ciudad Rodrigo, in the province of Salamanca, is a historic gem on the banks of the Águeda River. This walled city preserves a valuable medieval and Renaissance legacy that can be felt in its cobbled streets and monuments.

Its standout landmark is the Cathedral of Santa María, a blend of late Romanesque and Gothic styles, and its well-preserved walls offer a walk with views of the Castilian landscape. The Castle of Enrique II, now a Parador Nacional, invites visitors to relive key moments in history.

Beyond its heritage, Ciudad Rodrigo thrives with a vibrant cultural life, highlighted by the Carnaval del Toro, a unique festival combining tradition and passion. An ideal destination for those seeking history, charm, and authenticity.
